silk and Silk-Worms.

The mulberry tree was cultivated in
China and known by the name Of the
golden tree 1900 years before the
Christian era
In the life of the silk-worm there are
five periods or ages between the different
mouths, the first after the matching and
the last before spinning.
White silk is the most valuable in COM
merce, but the races producing yellow,
cream-colored or sulphur cocOons are
generally considered to be the most Wig
orous.
The two most marked and noted
European varieties of cocoons are the
italian breed, producing small yellow Co
ceons; the French, producing large white
cocoons.
Relied silk is classified into organzine,
tram and floss. Organzine is closely
spun and twisted and is the best. Tram
is made from inferior cocoons, and is
more loosely spun and twisted. Floss is
made of the loose silk carded and spun
like cotton or wool.
Among silk-worms the ANIMALS are the
strongest and hardest, and are preferred
in France, Italy and Europe generally,
where they now use with great success
what are known as the Pyrean, Cevennes,
Var, Milanese and Roumelian adrian
ople) varieties.
Ben. F. Peixotto, ex-United States
Consul at Lyons, France, says; Raw
(reeled) silk, that is TO say, silk as reeled
from the cocoon and imported for the
use of our silk mills, is really manu-
featured article, and moreover an article
the value of which depends very largely
upon the excellence Of the manufactIr-
ing process through which 1t has gone.
When cocoons are first gathered from
the branches they are green cocoons or
seed silk. When they are sifted or
pierced they are raw silk, which includes,
specially, dried and pierced cocoons,
waste and floss. When the dried cocoons
are reeled and four to ten strands or fila
ments have been spun or twisted into one
thread or yarn, it is reeled silk or gregg;
SO also is the waste and floss when carded
or spun. Mail and Express.

4 CREOLE sEREsApE.

The lily bares her snowy breast
Beneath the summer moon,
The moth pursues his honeyed quest
Where sucked the bee at noon;
And from the fountains liquid light
The fairy music flies
To plead for mo the love, to-nighs
Thy Maynard heart denies.
Sail, Love, sail
Across the slnmber sea,
And freight thy bark,
Amid the dark,
With tender dreams OF mel
The Hssome rose with baluny feet
Around thy lattice climbs;
The breeze steals in with winglets fleet
To breathe his silver rhymes;
While I, with weary waiting worn,
Gaze up with wistful eyes,
And guard thy slumbers till the morn
Comes laughing up the skies.
Sail, Love, sail
Across the slumber sea,
And freight thy bark,
Amid the dark,
With tender dreamso of me!

THINGS A SOLDIER MUST LEARN.
Gen. John Coburn's Lecture to the Young PEG.
pie at Plymouth Church Yesterday.

The seventh lecture of the young peoples his
torical series was delivered to church full of
school children, at Plymouth Church, yesterday.
Gen. John Coburn was the lecturer. and his SUBJ
iect, ''Some Things Soldier Must Learn" was
delivered in manner entirely suited to his aud
ience Their appreciation was fully shown in
their frequent applause. The lecturer spoke very
briefly about his personal experiences in the late
war, and what he had to learn. The soldiers
of the Union army, he said, had come from every
class and position. and were wholly without mil
ity education or experience This was
detrimental to their success, but
by constant drilling, it was soor
overcome. But another detrimental feat
ure was the fact that the soldiers did not know
how to cook, eat or sleep, so that their health
would not be impaired By the exposure and hard
ships. This was taught them with great diff
entity, and not before disease, incurred by thei,
lack OF this knowledge, had destroyed thousands.
They would not eat the fruits sent them for sus
tenance, called them ''desecrated,' and they
made the order compelling them 10 boil their
meat and eat the soup necessity, by frying the
| meat until it was like chip After many
months they learned the modes of sleeping on

line, and many poor fellow suffered for his dis
obedience of it. The guns had to be kept clean
and their barrels had to be bright; the swords
had to glisten like FURNISHED metal and the
camps had to be kept scrupulousv clean. The
soldier had to learn and endure the fatigue of a
| long march, the routine of guard duty, the mis-
cry of an extended siege. and the terrors of a
| fierce battle. All these. the speaker said had
been learned by the boys in blue, and the risin Z
generation must prepare itself to be ready. il

So, 81, So.

We have taken over two hun
dred Cloaks, placed them in three
lots and marked them at IS, 81, SO.
They were formerly sold at from
ten to twenty dollars, and at the
new prices they are probably the
greatest bargains ever offered in
Cloaks.
Each lot is separate, and custom
ers can make selections very easily.
Every Cloak is less than the man
ufacturers' cost, and many Of them
less than the materials could be
made for.
The new prices are all PRINTED on
the tags, which enables anyone to
see them at glance.
We venture the assertion that
there never were so good and stylish
Cloaks sold for S., 81 and SO as the
three lots we now offer, and when
you consider that they are less than
one-half our former low prices you
will conclude that they are very
cheap.
They are bargains, and we'll de
serve the attention Of all who in
